Three researchers within the Social Science Faculty at Lund University have compiled an anthology challenging the notion of the refugee crisis of 2015. The book also investigates how Germany, Sweden, and Denmark use bureaucracy to control, discipline, and shape asylum seekers’ lives. In 2015, the number of asylum seekers arriving in the EU doubled from the previous year, totalling over 1.3 million

Children aged 9 are several times more sensitive to disruptive advertising than adults. This is shown by studies conducted at Lund University in Sweden, in which children’s eye movements were measured. Together with the Lund University Humanities Lab, media and communications researcher Nils Holmberg has developed a combination of methods for measuring how much children’s concentration is disrupte

Physics researchers at Lund University in Sweden recently succeeded in constructing small solar radiation-collecting antennas – nanowires – using three different materials that are a better match for the solar spectrum compared with today’s silicon solar cells. As the nanowires are light and require little material per unit of area, they are now to be installed for tests on satellites, which are p

Ethnologist Susanne Lundin’s research is ultimately about life and death and how people relate to the inevitable. What are people willing to do to delay the end briefly? Is there a limit beyond which someone ceases to be human? Susanne Lundin is a professor at the Department of Arts and Cultural Sciences and has conducted interdisciplinary research with medics for 30 years. Today, she is a sought-

Somewhere in an abandoned chalk quarry in northeastern Skåne lurks the skeleton of an 84 million-year-old dinosaur. A group of geologists is convinced of it. Now that a number of teeth have been found, the treasure hunt has intensified. The September sun blazes over the extensive chalk quarry outside the Skåne village of Vinslöv. On a little ledge near a bright blue pond stand two geology research

Could green citizen journalism on social media be a way to solve China’s huge environmental problems? “Perhaps. Citizen journalism forces change. However, the authorities still believe that experts and more control from above will solve the problem of climate change. They haven’t understood that the trend cannot be reversed without the involvement of a grassroots movement.” An increasing number of

Threats and hate speech from outside are certainly very trying. But could they be even worse when they come from within the organisation? What if you barely dare to go to work because you get threatened – or you are not even allowed in to work because you are accused of threatening someone else?

Being able to predict diseases before they develop has become somewhat akin to the search for the Holy Grail. The difference is that research has a greater chance of success in finding what they are looking for than King Arthur's knights did. And in many cases, there are significant health benefits to being able to predict disease risk early: prevention is better than cure. Biomarkers are trace el
